Collection: Skin Care

Ayurvedic skin care is based on ancient Indian medicine. The practice includes Ayurvedic facials, treatments for skin diseases, and herbal formulations for the skin.+

According to Ayurveda, a person’s skin type is based on three doshas.

• vata (wind)
• pitta (fire)
• kapha (water and earth)

Vata

According to the Ayurvedic tradition, a vata-dominant person has dry and rough skin that tends to wrinkle if not moisturized regularly.

Pitta

People with high pitta tend to have oily skin that may be prone to acne and rosacea.

Kapha

Kapha skin tends to be cold and oily, and it may be prone to pimples, whiteheads, and water retention.
